Original Black Christmas scared the shit out of me, and I’m Toxically Masculine.

The Exorcist is my all time fave. It still scares me.

@ghost of brig gen j glover: Did you actually say “great actors” and Bill Paxton in the same sentence?
There’s something wrong with me, I think. Hollywood horror movies have never scared me. However, there are a couple of themes from some scifi’s that have – and some dreams I’ve had that scared the bejabbers out of me.
Maybe we should have a “what’s your scariest moment/idea?” post (from whatever source).

@ Tony R – yep I said that, have you seen Frailty?
This is NOT the Titanic or Aliens…more ‘horror’ movies, btw with Bill, may he RIP.
Drowning alive has got to be THE worst! Being eaten alive from the inside is pretty bad too.

Halloween, 1978 – with Donald Pleasance, arguably a GREAT actor…
Have not seen that one @BFH, but I do recommend the below to those that like HORROR:
Frailty, 2001
This movie is LACED with great actors including Bill Paxton as the father.

I actually prefer comedy. That is one of the reasons I am here!
GHOST, and BOOS to YOUS!
@ghost and BFH – Awesome recommendation!
Paxton, McConaughey and Powers Boothe
Forgot I saw it, well worth the re-watch,,
TY!
The Omen was one of the Greats from the late 70’s.

This is PRE The Shining, REDRUM…Kubrick was certainly watching.
Another casting of great actors, Gregory Peck??
The Blob comes, or seeps, into mind…

I find the most ironic aspect of BLACK CHRISTMAS is its director Bob Clark… who would direct the classic A CHRISTMAS STORY nine years later.
Bob Clark – 1939-2007
